"It's truly special when you meet somebody who not only has immense talent, but also a heart of gold.


Johanna is one of those people.


When I was choosing a photographer for my surprise proposal to my fiancée, it was really important to me to pick somebody who would make it feel natural and timeless. I probably reached out to 10+ photographers. I knew Johanna was the right person before I even met her, when her contact form asked, "When you're looking back at your photos, what do you want to feel?". That small, simple question perfectly encapsulates the thoughtfulness and joy Johanna brings.


There will be a day when I don't remember all the details of the day I proposed. But I'll always remember how I felt. I have Johanna to thank for that. The photographs are incredible, and she was amazing. From the moment we met, it felt like reconnecting with an old friend. I'm so grateful our paths crossed.


I could not recommend her enough!"

"Johanna was an absolute DREAM to work with.



My fiancé and I had such a lovely time doing our proposal / engagement photoshoot and Johanna turned it into a 2hr laugh session. She is great at communicating and planning, incredibly artistic with her vision, and flexible to each client’s needs. If you are looking for someone to wholeheartedly trust for a fun and beautiful photoshoot, Johanna should absolutely be your first call."

"It is hard to put into words how wonderful Johanna is.


From the beginning I felt her warmth and joy even through a Zoom call. I felt like we were friends that had known each other already.


She made every effort to make our special day as easy, fun, and full of love and laughs as possible. She’s very professional and sent our photos back in record time! We couldn’t be happier with choosing Johanna for our wedding and we look forward to the next photo shoots we can book with her."

Johanna was so wonderful to work with and I can’t recommend her enough! She was professional, funny, and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. The photos from our afternoon in Strasbourg turned out great and I’m so glad we made a photoshoot part of our trip. Johanna went out of her way to give us amazing recommendations for places to eat and things to see in the cities we were staying in. Our time with her felt like meeting up with a friend. Such a great experience and a highlight of our trip to Europe!

Johanna is not only a super talented photographer (puts you at ease, takes amazing pictures, knows which way to point the camera) she's also just a really fun person. Our photoshoot with her in Strasbourg felt like getting to hang out with a friend, and I think that's totally reflected in the photos. We couldn't be happier with the whole experience!

"Johanna is not only a pro in photography, but in making people seen seen, valued, and comfortable"


- Sarah Toussaint, Life Coach & Author



"I needed some new professional photos for my website and social media. When Johanna told me she was offering personal branding shoots as well, I said yes right away - and it was the best choice ever! I honestly never thought I would say that about photos of myself, but I love how Johanna captured me. They feel authentic, beautiful, transporting the heart of myself and my work. I know that the reason why the photos turned out that well is because Johanna is not only a pro in photography but in making people feel seen, valued and comfortable.


She turned a normally uncomfortable have-to photoshooting into a wonderful morning in the park with a lot of laughter - and a ton of amazing photos! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!"


"Johanna is such a genuine, warm, and joyful person to be with...


... Even from the beginning when we first approached her and spoke to her via Zoom - miles away from her on the other side of the world. Johanna also discussed with us potential shoot locations, gave us ideas/guides on our outfits for the shoot and even went out of the way to help us in our travel planning (unrelated to the shoot!)


Our photoshoot session in Heidelberg was nothing short of fun; she made us so comfortable in front of the camera (she is not only the best photographer but our best cheerleader/hype-girl), had a keen eye for beautiful spots to shoot at and gave us directions/ideas when we needed them.


And of course, the photos turned out soo beautiful! The photos captured all the fun and laughter we had during the shoot and our quirks and personalities; they make us smile every time we see them! Thank you Johanna, for everything!! We will definitely recommend her to everyone, and will definitely reach out to her again if we are in Europe!"

"Three words:

BOOK THIS GIRL!


Johanna is the type of person who makes you so comfortable expressing your true self in front of a camera, and you're going to spend the entire time laughing in front of the camera like we did! I was not surprised to see how easy-going and playful she made our time together! She connected us to each other and she made sure we had everything we need to feel comfortable.


She has such a good eye to capture the perfect moments of authenticity and love. Anyone who knows her understands how much love and thought she puts into the couples she works with. I couldn't wait to see the pictures and I didn't have to: we received our photos edited in record time!



Thank you so much for this special time, for your shining energy, and for all the genuine love you had for us."

Johanna was awesome! As an English speaker in Germany, she was so comforting to have during my and my wife’s wedding. We were very last minute in our planning and she swooped in and saved the day being super accommodating. 06:00 start time was no problem either 🙂 wonderful person who excels at making you feel comfortable and natural.

"Johanna is such a kind hearted and talented person.


The warmth of her heart can be seen from the photos. They are so amazing and they turned out to be way better than expected. She has an amazing eye as a photographer and is also very skilled in editing the photos. I don't know how to thank you, these are the best photos we've ever had!


If you're considering hiring Johanna: she is an amazing personality and an awe-inspring couple/love photographer! She brings out the best of us in the photoshooting sessions, she is the best, this is a lifetime experience and recommended for everyone!"
